Easy, mostly a hike
Round Trip Time: 4-7 hours
Height Gain: 1100m

Tangle Ridge is another summit ideally located for photographing awe-inspiring peaks of the Columbia Icefield region. From the top you can see major summits not visible from either Nigel or Wilcox peaks. Tangle Ridge also offers a long easy ridge walk with a loop back on Wilcox Pass trail. Despite lack of a path partway through the intervening forest, reaching the top is straightforward. Morning light is preferable for photos. Try from late June on.
